In this module, you will be doing four different activities which you need to finish in three periods. At the third period, you must be able to submit and present all your finished output to the class by posting all hard copies on the library bulletin board. All soft copies must be posted in the wikispace, InfoLit-G11, Production Bin Track 3. In between days when you are completing the activities, it is essential that you send a daily update via email to librarian@beaconacademy.ph.
The activities in this module are anchored on the goals presented in InfoLit Session Part 2 - The Nitty-Gritty. You can always go back to the goals which serve as your "beacon" of light as you chart your way through the ocean of academic and scholarly pursuits.
